Twice as many as I've used and half as many as I've forgotten. WTF kind of question is this Huffle? Who's the daddy because they know the most languages? Sorry, a lot of us old farts learnt to program from an abstract position, learning the theory of what was being done and then discovering the syntactical construction in a given language to achieve the aim. I learnt at least 3 distinct languages in my first year at college; just to put into practice the theory. What is a far better skill is to be able to look at a program written in any language and have a fair grasp of what it is doing.

Option 7 is not a real programming language..... Don't take offense!!! :-D You know many I'd like to learn.

I've attempted many programming languages, I think a better question would be what languages are you competent in!

I think we did Modula-2 at uni. They said it was a good language to learn with but of no use in the outside world. In my final year we did Java with an almost evangelical lecturer who claimed it was the only language anyone would ever need in th near future. We had another lecturer similarly excited by xml.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I'd have to answer "Zero" to that one. I can answer "about a 100" to the original.

1.- Java 2.- C++ 3.- VB.Net 4.- C# 5.- F#(I know it to the level of being able to use it, not that I master the trade ;P ) 6.- Javascript I used to maintain a couple of systems in Fortran, Visual FoxPro, Visual Prolog and did a little bit on Progress but it's been years since that.

Just enough to get the work done.

Lemmings are ace. They live in places most other rodents cannot, have reverse camouflage in that they actually stand out against their terrain and simply face off against any predators, and are such phenomenal breeders that their populations become so huge so quickly there simply isn't enough room for them and they go plummeting off cliffs and into rivers as another one gets popped out in the middle somewhere one gets forced off the edge.

I'm not sure: I "know" many in the sense that I have used them in anger over a period of six months or more. I "know" many more that I was taught but promptly forgot once the exams were over - COBOL for example - or that I used for one or two projects and never again. In addition, Are you going to class Assembly languages together? I wouldn't: Z80 assembler is wildly different from x86 assembler (both CISC), which is nothing like ARM or PIC (both nominally RISC, but I would argue that for ARM). So, (deep breath) PDP 8, PDP15, Prime 4, IBM 360/195 GEC 4070. Z80 (and the Hitachi supersets), Z8000, 68000, 8086 (and derivatives) PIC, ST6, ARM (Thumb and non-thumb) and a bunch of other minor assemblers. COBOL, FORTRAN (4 and 77), RATFOR, PASCAL, ALGOL, BASIC, C, VB, C++, C#, LISP, APL. Does SQL count? What about Linq? A good number of those I would need to at least skim a book on before I tried to do anything serious with it again. And I probably missed a few out in there while I was going through.
